Deshojo La Margarita

In 'Deshojo La Margarita,' Club 57 delves into the complexities and uncertainties of love. The song's title, which translates to 'Plucking the Daisy,' references the age-old game of pulling petals off a flower to determine if someone loves you. This metaphor sets the stage for the song's exploration of doubt and the search for reassurance in a romantic relationship. The repeated question, '¿Cómo saber?' ('How to know?'), underscores the protagonist's struggle to understand if their love is reciprocated, highlighting the universal anxiety of unrequited feelings.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the protagonist's inner turmoil. They compare their uncertainty in love to being the 'worst student in the class' and losing their 'religion book,' symbolizing a loss of direction and faith. These metaphors emphasize the protagonist's feelings of inadequacy and confusion. The mention of 'García Márquez cien años de soledad' ('García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude') further deepens the sense of isolation and longing, drawing a parallel between the literary masterpiece's themes of loneliness and the protagonist's emotional state.

Club 57's musical style, characterized by its nostalgic and retro influences, adds another layer to the song's emotional depth. The upbeat yet melancholic melody mirrors the bittersweet nature of the lyrics, creating a poignant contrast that resonates with listeners. The repetition of the chorus, 'Deshojo la margarita,' serves as a constant reminder of the protagonist's ongoing quest for clarity and affirmation in their love life. Through this song, Club 57 captures the essence of romantic uncertainty, making it a relatable and heartfelt anthem for anyone who has ever questioned the strength of their love.
